You'll probably want to use v.in.dwg [*] for this. v.in.dxf in GRASS 5.4
might work too.

[*] non-Free libary req., must build yourself & can't redistribute.


I don't think v.in.ogr supports dxf?

... which one? The http://grass.institutoecos.org.br/grass-list/ was
broken last time I tried and the Gmane one only keeps recent messages,
but the main one works fine:

  http://grass.ibiblio.org/searchgrass.php



I've just highlighted the link to the main search page on the Mailing
list webpage, hope that helps.
